I think about ten Earth's could fit across the diameter of this >>8054946 aurora, if I remember the scale about right.

Post papes to worship Celeb Goddesses
I've been fascinated with utility poles in wallpapers ever since I listened to Kodomo's Still Life album. Preferably no busy wiring.

Post commieblocks, slums and anything else with SOVLBelgrade, Serbia
>>8057149Egypt's geography is insane. Comparable land mass to Libya, which neighbours it. Libya: 6-7 million people. Egypt: 110 million people. The difference is JUST the nile. Egypt's population is packed in around the nile, and the nile delta. That has to make food for them as well. As the population as grown, the amount of land you can actually fucking live in has not, which means cairo has grown like a middle-aged mom who never took off her goth gear, and now it's all squishing over the top of her boots and coming through the mesh halter.I dunno the reasons for its growth specifically, aside from world population growth trends overall, but the reason cairo is so absolutely rammed is that there just isn't anywhere to go. You need water, you need food, and the rest of the country is a motherfucking desert drier than a nun on sunday.
>>8055809>>8057149>>8057150Egypt is so overpopulated that the government is creating a new Capital. Cause the actual one is too busy, and people can't move properly.
I love the feelings of melancholy, sadness, homesickness, tiredness invoked by images of soviet/brutalist architecture.In this thread i will post some High Res Pics of that!Feel free to post some aswell, everyone is welcome.(I will also be posting some music)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNk99-9sBYQ&list=PLkpi4OlrotP10wzwUzHVjBtYNZv9sHO1G&index=38&ab_channel=%D0%93%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%A4%D0%B0%D0%BD%D1%82%D0%BE%D0%BC%3F-Topic
>>8012785You literally just described what the United States has routinely done to us with a capitalist economy. Go outside.
>>8055948Lol you dumb fuck, the nazis made the most bland, unnecessarily opulent (yet horribly designed) buildings that serve no utility other than just being big fucking eyesores.Oh cool pillars with basically no design or purpose! They definitely don't look like they were designed by unartistic morons with blank checks trying to remember what Roman architecture looked like /s
>>8056328And yet their aesthetic is still remembered for being imposing and a show of power even 80 years later in spite of the Soviets being the world power that came out on top and dominated half the world with its ideological strong-arming all the while.Curious.
this has been my pape for better part of a year now
This has been my wallpaper for over 4 years.
Trying times ahead, winter brehs. Summer can be a drag but we can make the best of it. I'll be riding my motorcycle and doing what I can to make this hot season work.>>8048980Can't say that there's this one grandiose moment that made me realize winter is the GOAT season. I've always liked it and always dreamt and still dream of heavy snowfall, Christmas trees and all around general goodness.I guess the best times of my life happened at winter time. Winter break from school, people not leaving like they would for summer break, good food, sweets and all that. It used to be so magical.Nowadays, not as much of course. Adulthood is ass. But I can still pretend I'm a kid when it's snowing outside.
We never really stop playing this game, we just take long breaks...

>>8056866It runs much smoother than the later versions (starting from 1.13 performance issues became significant, although they were somewhat fixed later on) and has a lot of mods some of which I think are still maintained to this day. If you really want some of the stuff from the newer versions you can always find some backport mods like FutureMC, although they may or may not lack certain features.
>>8054869The feature bloat and "adventure" stuff really took away from the core survival experience. Having an endgame or boss battles was never the point near the beginning, and that was important to the feel of the games progression. The survival sandbox gameplay was carried on the weight of the atmosphere of that world. The texture work was reminiscent of that era of RPG that inspired the game, from Dwarf Fortress, to Ultima, to Might & Magic, or Daggerfall. But unlike those games, filled with NPCs, monsters to slay, and quests to complete, minecraft was a mostly empty world. The music complemented this stark difference between those action packed titles and this never ending sandbox where the only spelled out goal was to survive. It was a collection of slow, somber, electronic tunes that created a contemplative mood reminiscent of artists like Aphex Twin or Brian Eno. That atmosphere felt lonely and isolating and that made the things you populated the world with feel important, and the steps toward survival feel like real achievements. Now you can come across prebuilt structures all the time and if you don't feel like mining you never really have to, and sure you have a food bar but that is totally pointless because you never run out of easy ways to get food.
Survival is the definition of bloat in the current direction the game has taken and the action RPG mechanics added are lackluster compared to the mods people have made for the game while also taking away from the atmosphere of the earlier stages. Minecraft is a case study in less being more and the potential pitfalls of an endless development cycle, as well as the danger posed by acquisition by major corporations and the passing of development work from one person/group to another. The most positive spin I could put on it is that it is like a collaborative work of art that has had additions to it over the years and though those additions are not always ideal the old versions are always available to enjoy, along with an active modding community that makes ever new version into a million different games that are a unique expression of those individuals visions for what the game could be. There will never be another game quite like it, that's for sure.

Excellent autism, I approve
As per the title. Purple, deep blue, indigo etc. skies also encouraged. Try to avoid animated. NSFW only if tasteful. Basically anything you could stick a 10 hour loop of home - resonance over and have a good time.
good thread, thanks anons
Need some good train papes, steam engines preferred.
